Could Golovkin end up being the next Jeff Lacy?

[STAX ON DECK]

golvovkine seems to me like the nexy andre berto ,he looks decent and powerful against very weak oppoeosion but when he steps up in class he looks confused and outlandish.

u know theres a reason he stays hiding out in the WEAKEST division in boxing,he cant move up cause the big players at SMW take him to deep waters,this includes FROCH,WARD and both DIRRELLS and he literally gets killed at 175.

It's Embarrassing for any boxing fan to liken lacy to golovkin

Not even in the same realm

[jaded]

Golovkin KO'd Lucian Bute on his way to that gold medal.

That was a really interesting fight. Bute was winning and I was surprised that GGG didn't really look that good against him and then at the end GGG catches Bute on the chin and pulls it off.

I'm pretty sure you meant Adrien Broner cause that dude beats up all the can drivers and then steps up just a little and gets schooled

[kafkod]

I didn't even realise Golovkin was that old until recently.

I didn't realise Dirk Diggler was so fucking ****** until recently.

[kafkod]

You are getting schooled son just admit defeat
Quit humiliating yourself

Natas is exposing Dirk as the next Inkanyamba.

Hyped up for his power,while yet to fight a real champion..Will Golovkin be exposed at the highest level?

who knows???

This is a pretty good question for once Larry. Thing is, Lacy was even more inexperienced at the highest level than GGG but he was an exceptional puncher and rightly deserved his hype. As does GGG. The major difference here is, SMW had Calzaghe and Kessler, two truly elite fighters, one of whom is a first ballot HOFer and a probable ATG.

Middleweight, right now does not have any two fighters such as those. Yes Cotto is exceptional but he is small and can be broken apart by big punchers. The guy, in his own words "is not a middleweight". Who else is out there? Quillin? Lee? Lem? That makes for some fun match ups but hardly a high calibre of opponent.

[KnockoutNed]

Golovkin definitely isn't as good as the hype surrounding him. He has slow feet, slow hands and is very hittable. He is a guy that wins relying on his power and in imposing his strength against the b and c level fighters that he is a 200/1 favourite to beat. If he finally stepped up and fought Ward, it would be just as dominant of a beatdown as what Calzaghe did to Lacy.

Lmao.... Absolutely not...


Golovkin is a silver medalist, and has crushed ranked competition..


Lacy was a weak amateur, and beat up on faded scott pemberton and Omar sheika...


Golovkin and lacy have zero in common

Like Kovalev was supposed to be the next Pavlik.

Yep and yep.

Golovkin and Lacy are like chalk and cheese. A million miles apart.
While 'im pretty sure this is a troll thread, a comparison between Broner and Lacy would of been much more apt.

[rajaomair]

Lacy being like Golovkin

Is like saying

Broner is like floyd...


Just 2 different classes of fighters

I agree......
